just to show off the speed ;-)

Thanks Ronald. Too bad developers are only aiming at Maya and Max
from AD "suite". I admire the job that independent developers are
putting into this. I think I'll pass until the viewport is integrated
in Softimage. Hope it will not take as long as V-ray...
Even that Maxwell for rendering uses it's own. The workflow beween
Softimage and Maxwell is great with Fire. No fooling around or
tweaking things outside the software. I hope that Next Limit will add
the GPU processing and perhaps it will be as fast as Octane.

Nope, this is the best there is for SI at the moment as far as I know.

Is the interactive window in softimage plugin available yet?
Personally I don't like switching between apps to see how the
render is coming.

Just watch the video in this thread and install the addon:
http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=24365
Make sure you also download and replace the dll that is
mentioned later on in the thread, and if your SI camera does
not export correctly, try changing the default units in the
Octane prefs to meters.

If you have the time, can you explain the workflow with
using both octane and softimage without an interactive
viewport in soft??
Thanks

yep, been playing with it the last few days and I'm
really impressed by the speed and quality of Octane.
But comparing both Arnold and Octane, all I can say
is for most stuff Arnold is still better suited and
production proven, but Octane is a nice addition.
Some scenes I tested that took forever to render in
Arnold render in just a few minutes in Octane.
Can't wait for the interactive viewport plugin for
Softimage though.

Anyone here has used octane render within Softimage?
If so I will appreciate your comments and your
point of view of Octane vs other renders you have
used.
And if you have used Arnold and Octane, which one
you prefer.
I have the Octane experience only from the videos
and the demo. It seems to me that it is like
Maxwell but a lot faster.
Cheers!
